General Pace's Comments On Gay People?

Question

How many people do you think will believe HILLARY CLINTON and BARACK OBAMA'S comments that Being Gay is not immoral. When they both know that being Queer jus't ain't right and why would we want Queers in the Military anyway. That should tell the american people a lot about HILLARY & BARACK they both lie through there teeth to get a vote. They would rather climb up a tree and tell a lie than stand on the ground and tell the truth. Me i agree with General Pace and think he is a good man and the kind of leader we need in the military.

Answer 1

I do agree that homosexuality is immoral. Anyone who says it isn't is lying or is ignorant to many things. First of all, morality in its very essence is only based from religion- and there have been no religion that hasn't banished homosexuality. Therefore gays are immoral- that's been established. It seems today, that anyone who speaks out against anything is considered a "neanderthal" or "weak". If we say that people should be able to do whatever they want with their lives and bodies- then might as well we legalize suicide, abortion, public nudity, and all of the other frivolous acts of clear arrogance to the community.

Answer 2

I don't give a rat's behind about Clinton or Obama. I am gay and I don't think that being so is immoral. I have met many individual gay people who were quite cynical, but I have also met many who were very good people. I prefer dating the latter.

Gen. Pace does not deserve to be villified as a "bigot" for what he believes nor for saying it. I think that all of the media hounds who have been chastizing Pace ought to go to Capitol Hill and talk to Democrat Ike Skelton of Missouri, Chariman of the House Armed Services Committee, and ask Ike whether or not Gen. Pace was expressing the same sentiments that most members of Congress felt when they voted for Ike's "don't ask, don't tell" legislation back in 1993.

I don't want to call you bigot, oilwell. I just want to outvote you at the ballotbox and in Congress.

Answer 3

Well as Americans we ask questions. but we want it answered the way we want to hear it even if its wrong. Gen Pace was asked a question and he answered it honestly. So i don't see the problem with his comment. He could have lied and said anything to make us feel better but he didn't. He said what he felt was right so you cant fault a man for that. A man should only be punished if he told a lie but why ask a question and then turn around and try to punish him for saying what he was truly feeling. I don't have anything against gays. But if gays feel its right to be gay then let them be, if he feels its wrong then let it go everyone is entitled to there own opinion.

Answer 4

General Pace is probably gay, as most people who publicly decry gays are.

That said, the military has discharged gay men who were our arab interpreters. If that's not a sign of true idiocy in a culture, I don't know what is.

Why would gays or anyone else want to join George Bush' military is utterly beyond me.

Why on earth do you think we need a leader who publicly disses 10% of the troops who are fighting and dying for bush's lies?

I've have never been able to understand people who don't like gays. What on earth is the mental malfunction of these haters? Just being brainwashed by their pathetic religions?
The stupid book that says it is an abomination to the lord also says eating shrimp is an abomination to the lord. SO who on earth could possibly care what this prejudiced ranting says?

Answer 5

More than you'd ever care to believe. This country is adjusting quickly to acceptance of gays and lesbians. There's not one recorded incidence of a gay man or woman being a problem in their unit. Soldiers report frequently they know they are fighting beside gays all the time. They seem to have no problem whatsoever with it. It seems just the holier than thou self-righteous moral police are the only ones who are having kittens over the idea of gays and lesbians openly in our armed forces. You have no idea how many of them are there already fighting for their country right next to heterosexual soldiers, without rancor from either one. I know of three in my social network of friends and family that are serving right now in Iraq and doing their country proud.

General Pace is entitled to his opinion. So are Clinton and Obama - and a great deal of the nation agrees with them, like it or not.

Answer 6

There is nothing wrong with his comments. He is entitled to his opinion just like every other American. As long as he follows military guidelines instead of his personal opinion while conducting his military duties he is just fine. He made it quite clear that he he supported the military guidelines on this matter.

Answer 7

Half of you so against gays probably have gay cousins or uncles or something. Stop being so judgmental. And no I am not gay. But gays are here and they are all over the place. For all we know, Pace may be gay himself. Or maybe his son is. (Thou doth protest too much). On the other hand Pace has a right to his opinion. However he is a little confused....since when does one equate homosexuality with "adultery", as he did.

Answer 8

"...being Queer just ain't right.." Exactly why "ain't" it right? Regardless of what you think, it is NOT the place of GOVERNMENT to dictate who a person can or cannot love. We live in a Constitutional Republic, NOT a democracy, and under such system the minority is protected(not granted "special" rights, just equal rights). You can be anti-homosexual all you want, but you are not granted nor is government granted the power to pass law to suppress personal freedom. You do not have that power in the U.S.. In fact it is the responsibility of the citizens to abolish a government should it become destructive of such ends.

Answer 9

How utterly brainwashed do you have to be to think there is any similarity between Byrd joining the clan as a very young man and talking extensively about what a mistake that was and how much he regrets it and Pace as a senior citizen making homophobic comments?

Answer 10

There are a few things you have to realize.

Since he is not a liberal he is not allowed to have an opinion that differs from theirs. Since his opinion does differ from theirs that makes him a bigot.

Now, if he was a liberal/Democrat and made those comments all would be forgiven once he gave a half assed apology.

Byrd is a great example of that. Sitting Democrat Senator from West Virginia, klan leader, but that is okay, because he has the "D" in front of his name all he had to do was give a half assed apology and call it a "youthful indiscretion" and all was forgiven.
